Hoping I got the right mention for Slatestripe-

The little she-cat brightened when Pikestar first said her name. She was gonna be an apprentice! Wow, wow, wow! She waited anxiously in the group of other young cats until Pikestar named them apprentices. When her new name left his maw she almost squealed in delight. Autumnpaw. That had a very nice ring to it. As he began to list mentors, she squirmed in place. Her name was one of the last, paired with Slatestripe. Okay, she could find him. She looked around for the tom, standing and peering around the crowd.

Slatestripe was more than pleased to receive an apprentice, although he was surprised it wasn’t Mintpaw. He’d been expecting, and hoping, to get that little kit as an apprentice. But no worries; he could still maintain a connection to her.

His eyes swept toward his actual apprentice, the cat who he knew now needed to be his primary focus. His first ever apprentice. He settled on her, a calico with amber eyes that were searching for him. Slatestripe strode across the clearing, confident and proud.

“Hello Autumnpaw!” he chirped happily. “I’m Slatestripe.” He bent down to touch noses with her.
